Grilled Mango Avocado Salad Food

GRILLED MANGO WITH LIME, SALT AND ANCHO POWDER

Steps:

• Heat the grill to medium for direct grilling. Slice the mangoes in 2 pieces from the pit. Score the flesh of the mangoes in a diamond pattern, taking care not to cut into the skin. Pop the flesh by holding the skin side and pushing up. Brush the flesh with the oil and grill, cut-side down, until slightly charred, about 1 minute.
• Transfer the mangoes to a platter and immediately drizzle with the lime juice and sprinkle with the salt, chile powder and lime zest. Garnish with cilantro leaves if desired.

GRILLED CHICKEN MANGO SALAD WITH MANGO CILANTRO DRESSING

Steps:

• To assemble the salad, add lettuce, cucumbers, bell peppers, avocado, cilantro and grilled chicken to a large bowl. Pour the dressing on top and toss to combine. Serve immediately or the salad will get soggy.

MANGO PINEAPPLE SHRIMP SALAD

Steps:

• Bring salted water to a boil in a small kettle, add the shrimp, and cook for 90 seconds to 3 minutes, immediately remove the shrimp and submerge in an ice bath. Do not overcook the shrimp or they will taste rubbery. Cooking time will depend on the exact size of the shrimp but unless you are using truly jumbo shrimp such as U12 (expensive and not easy to always find) 3 minutes is the maximum boiling time I recommend; I cooked mine for 2 minutes.
• While the shrimp are resting and cooling in an ice bath, chop all remaining ingredients and add them to a medium bowl.
• Add the shrimp, stir well, and taste for seasoning balance, making adjustments as necessary. I recommend serving with tortilla chips or seasoned tortilla chips.
